Comfortable Stay with Plenty of Amenities

The condo was a great option for our family of 4 to stay in Mandeville. The two bedrooms upstairs were comfortable with a shared bathroom. Our young boys used both the futon and the inflatable double mattress. The living space was very open and faced the nice deck outside. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils/pots and a variety of other needs. The deck was nice with a view of the water, table/chairs, and a small grill. The best part was probably the community pool 50 feet from the front door. Our boys really enjoyed cooling off in there.

The Trace is about a half-mile down the road for riding bikes, walks, or a run. The French Quarter is about 50 minutes away. We had a very comfortable stay and would return.

It was a very nice place to stay.

The property itself was very nice. The owner Nick called me to make me aware of the tropical storm that was going thru. He even gave me options of things to do inside. He didn't need to take that time but he did. I would recommend this place to anyone.

A beautiful place to stay!

The property was in a beautiful location. It was fun to watch the sailboats come and go and walk along the lakefront. We took advantage of a few of the restaurants and brew pubs within walking distance. We would definitely stay again.
